LG G2

Product Description The first smartphone in LG’s premium “G” Series, the LG G2 for Verizon Wireless brings everything together in a device with comfortable, functional, convenient and beautiful design. Powered by Android 4.2.2 and a super-fast 2.26 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor, the 4G LTE-enabled LG G2 allows you to run multiple apps at once, browse the Web, or enjoy video and games seamlessly. And the 5.2-inch Full HD display is the largest display designed for one-handed operation. The LG G2 offers a unique, forward-thinking design that’s actually a bit backwards by placing all the buttons on the rear of the device (instead of along the sides). Moving the main buttons to the back of the phone gives you more control since this is where your index fingers are naturally located — you’ll wonder why they haven’t always been there. Researchers have also found that moving the buttons also results in fewer dropped phones when adjusting the volume while talking. Capture sharp pictures and smooth videos with the G2’s 13-megapixel rear camera, which features Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) technology and Full HD 1080p video recording. The LG G2 comes with 32 GB of internal storage (22 GB of user available storage) and up to 18.2 hours of talk time.

Edge-to-Edge Display Enjoy an immersive viewing experience that fits perfectly in your hand with G2’s 5.2-inch Full HD in-plane switching (IPS) display. Its sharp, 423 pixels-per-inch resolution shows off every detail, while its IPS display gives you bright whites and rich colors with a 16:9 cinema-like presentation. In addition to the expansive viewing experience, LG’s innovative Dual Routing technology reduced the phone’s bezel to a mere 2.65mm on the side edge. For more efficient energy usage, the LG G2 employs Graphic RAM (GRAM) technology, which reduces the display’s energy use by up to 26 percent on a still frame and increases overall usage time on the device by approximately 10 percent. Go Further Between Charges The G2’s step design 3,000 mAh battery gives you impressive power, without compromising style. With SiO+ technology (an enhanced version of the lithium-ion batteries), the G2’s battery provides maximum storage capacity and long-lasting efficiency, with a thinner profile than traditional batteries. You’ll get up to 18.2 of talk time and up to 275 hours (11.4 days) of standby time). 13-Megapixel Camera with Optical Image Stabilization Capturing important moments in shaky conditions is a breeze with the rear camera’s Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), which maintains focus while you hold the camera for less blur in photos and less shaking in videos –even in low-light settings. The Multi-Point Autofocus improves focus and depth of field with 9 AF points, especially for images with multiple faces or moving objects, while the Super Resolution Zoom provides more detail and sharper zoom quality, helping maintain clarity with 8 times the normal digital zoom. With the Dual Recording/Dual Camera feature, you can activate the front and rear cameras simultaneously to put both you and your subject in the shot with picture-in-picture technology. The 13-megapixel rear camera also captures video in Full HD 1080p resolution. The Audio Zoom feature helps to focus in on what you want to hear by using multiple stereo mics to amplify sound from a specified angle and de-emphasizing the surrounding noise for video recording and playback. The rear camera is complemented by a 2-megapixel front camera for video chats on the go. LG G2 Spec Highlights 3G/4G LTE connectivity

Designed with the power and volume buttons on the back of the phone. Studio Quality Hi-Fi Sound The powerful Snapdragon 800 processor also helps the G2 to boast impressive sound features such as Hi-Fi sound playback and HD multichannel audio for enhanced sound quality. The LG G2 features 24-bit/192 kHz Hi-Fi playback that reproduces studio-like quality sound, far superior to a CD. LG Enhancements QSlide Function. Multitask efficiently with the ability to open two additional windows over your main screen, and adjust their window size and transparency. QuickMemo. Write or draw on any screen using just a finger, adding a personal touch to everything. And with On-Call Notes, jot down ideas during a call and access them later on from G2’s call log entry. QuickRemote. Turn your G2 into a programmable remote to control multiple compatible electronic devices such as TVs, cable set-top-boxes, audio systems, and even air conditioners. Capture Plus. Save a full Web page rather than a limited screen capture. Clip Tray. Lets you copy and store multiple items, such as a screen shot, to a PC-like clipboard for use in other applications. Slide Aside. Move between up to three apps at once, by using three fingers to slide your current screen aside, and access another app. Guest Mode. Customize the G2’s experience with two modes — one for yourself and one for a child or guest — keeping your personal information and device settings safer. Access Guest Mode by unlocking the device with a separate lock screen pattern, letting you control which apps are available for a different user. KnockON. A simple knocking gesture is all it takes to wake G2’s display without picking it up or pressing the power key. G2 senses the gesture and turns the display on or off automatically.
